tiOnai Question.
ny telegraph TO the Dispatch.l
CHICAGO, August 9.-A special grand
iuiy is to be called without delay. Its
first business Will be the investigation
Of the conspiracy that ended in the
fight of McGariglc. The paint-and-
putty job, the biggest steal the county
suffered in any one transaction engi-
neered by the boodlers, will then claim
their attention. No doubt is expressed
but that DR.. 81. John will be indicted
for bis share in getting McGariglc of.
The two sailors from the schooner Blake
arrived here tonight to make afidavits
against tho Doctor after identifying
HIM. The purpose Of these dispositions
is 70 complete the legal proof that will
be IN the nature Of demand on the
National Government to take action.
The affidayits of Canadians, taken
both i'll Canada and the United States,
showing that McGarigle, citizen of
tits country, while under conviction OF
crime, was spirited off by citizens of
Canada for the purpose of defeating
the ends Of justice here, will be part OF
the evidence that viii be laid before the
Department OF State at Washington,
and if the authorities there can act un-
der The law they will be urged TO de-
mand OF the Canadian Government that
McGarigle be delivered up. The mat
ter is thus to be made an international
question
